First nezha 2 now this

Isn't it strange that for how popular these films are, there is not a single screenshot or meme or quote being posted by anyone on the internet

Draw your own conclusions
Its really nice and touching. Something special compared to spiderman etc.

Correct me if I am wrong.
Taiwan only show this movie for 2 days which was what I last know.
Dunno whether they extend the showing days.
To win the award, the director need to take part in the competition.
I don’t know what criteria needed to qualify for Golden Horse. Am also surprised with their political restrictions on mainland movies 😕

I dun think the taiwan side really restrict any tiong movie submission.
It is the tiong movie director who are hesitant to nominate their movie.
(Dun think he want to offend any movie commission back home.)
That is my understanding.

I went with anticipation that i will cry a lot but one of the very few scenes that broke me was the one in the remittance centre.. father urgently sending money back home to buy back daughter the family had sold... 😭😭😭
I'm still ok on this part. I really can't control my tears in the last part, tot 南枝 already forgotten everything till she ask whether did they received the salty meat...😢😢

Yes, waiting for the teochew version to be out
I watched the Mandarin Chinese version, it was quite painful to watch because the film reminds me of my late grandparents and the hardship they went through to come to Singapore and settle down. No regrets watching this movie, it's really quite nostalgic.

Sad…

“since 2019, mainland Chinese authorities have banned mainland-produced films and personnel from participating in the Golden Horse Awards — a political ban imposed by China's National Film Administration after a controversial acceptance speech at the 2018 ceremony, and it has remained in force in every edition since (no sign it's been lifted for 2026).”

Li Sitong is denied the chance to a win a major international award. She would be shoo-in for best new actress.

I guess their homeland will give the director the golden chicken or golden dog award liao.
If he still dare to go taiwan, then his future movies can forget about getting any more fundings.

Tiong awards would be like their talent shows, very 誇張 and self-serving one. Make themselves happy and proud, but mean nothing to the world.

To me, the only award of weight for Chinese movies is Golden Horse. Because it is established and well-regarded, and it is open to all movies made in Chinese languages, from any country.
